Charles Bourseul

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Charles Bourseul was born in Brussels, Belgium on the 28th of April 1829, and grew up in Douai, France. He is sometime credited with being an inventor of the telephone, as he wrote a memorandum on such a principle in 1854, though no prototype was realised. That is circa the same date that Meucci created his first telephone in Italy. Bourseul died in Saint-Céré, France on the 23rd November 1912, at the age of 83.
